Excellent, Marvellous, Mind Blowing
Just I glanced at the picture of Mysore Maharaja Palace it is very beautiful at the outer look then what about if I see the interior.

I don't think this Mysore Palace belongs to Tippu Sultan. I have great respect to the brave warrior Tipu Sultan.

One request to you that please confirm that the Mysore Palace is ever belongs to the Mysore Wodiyars but not Tipu's.
